Will the Minister confirm the health protection rules that apply to weddings and celebrations that are taking place in private gardens or other outside spaces, and the numbers of people allowed to attend such events?

Wedding or Civil Partnership ceremonies cannot currently take place in private gardens under UK marriage law.
